TEE-AODV Trust-based Route Selection and Improving Energy Efficiency in MANET

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are the future communication infrastructure for all devices that operate without the elaborate design found in wired infrastructure networks. Constructing a routing protocol that helps MANETs to achieve (QoS). It is quite challenging to achieve energy-efficient routing, due to its limited resources and node mobility concerns, which would impact node resource stability and lead to congestion and lower user QoS. A novel Trustworthy Energy Efficient AODV protocol has been proposed for improving path selection and locating trusted stations to maximize QoS. This approach employs location data, transmission speed, and directions to estimate the energy usage and trustworthiness of distinct nodes. The proposed TEE-AODV protocol includes two new control information namely Trust Request packet and Trust Reply. (T-RREP) AODV's packet includes a neighbor list and channel trustworthiness. The number of working neighbors in every path is counted, and this information is used to efficiently choose paths. The TEE-AODV calculates a QoS supporting metric for each detected route to identify a traffic-free path at any moment and determines whether it is a trusted route. The NS-2 simulator has been used to assess the suggested approach in terms of specific characteristics, including energy consumption (EC), (PDR), end-to-end delay (), and number of dead nodes. According to the experimental results, the suggested framework enhances reliable route selection while lowering e nd-to-end latency and improving energy efficiency. The experimental findings indicate that the suggested TEE-AODV protocol achieves high energy efficiency rate in the selection of trustworthy route and minimizing the $ {E_D} $ ED.
